Do only deficient eyes cause blindness??

        Until problems come in life,nobody turns to philosophy. In this world almost everybody has their own philosophy which emerges due to their interactions with the world.The experiences of each individual is at least different form others by 1 percent,so this implies that the philosophy of each person is at least 1 percent different from the other person.

        Different people have different visions to see this world but ultimately nobody comes with a perfect vision. Even the greatest philosphers and scientists are correct up to some extent but ultimately their theory confuses us.
      The problem is we conceive some part of the truth and concoct or speculate the rest of it.Like for example we see a mirage in the desert and conclude that here is water.Seeing water is truth but the truth is water is not there.There may be many things in this world which we may see but actually they me something else.
Its like 6 blind people trying to understand the elephant by holding different parts of the elephant.If we hear from them, they seem to be correct  but ultimately when it comes to understanding the whole shape of the elephant..their theory fails...
Similarly when someone quotes a theory on how the universe is created ?or how life originated?..their theory seems to be somewhat correct but ultimately it doesn't seem to satisfy us.
This can even be applied to relationship with the persons.Suppose a very good person,by some accident does a bad thing in front of you,and you are seeing his activities for the first time,you will obviously conclude that he is a bad person which is not true.

Therefore if the blind men want to perceive the elephant,they have to hear from the person who has vision. Our philosophies are similar to the blind men philosophies which arise because we touch different parts of the absolute truth(the elephant) and make our own philosophies and theories.

Our senses have limited perception.We cannot hear beyond 20 Hz and 20 Khz and we cannot see after some distance and our brain cannot be fully utilized.

We should search out for those persons who have that vision.But here we may question...Does that kind of person really exists??And even if he exists how would he look like??
